Re: Seat Questions

This question has alot of answers! All comfort to me is in the quality of seat springs, if they are worn out it will do that to you.

Re: Seat Questions

My buddybuckets are in good overall condition and sit comfortably but Ive never taken long trips with it yet .Ive never sitten on the original style buckets before which is the reason for my question. So if all three seats were in good condition ,which would sit better ?

Re: Seat Questions

A friend of mine had the buddys and was going to take them to the dump if I didnt load them up and take them with me .He even helped me load them ,I cleaned them and dyed them from grey to black and been using them ever since.

a few gys talking about it in this thread....http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=463633
